Tatler Restaurant Guide 2014 - Where to eat, where to drink

Otto's

We’re indebted to the doyenne of London restaurant critics for bringing our attention to Otto’s. This is a restaurant from another age (a better age it, might be argued), where frills or gimmicks hold no truck, and all that counts is a deep, full understanding of the pleasures of the table. Canard de Rouen à la presse (the duck press is the only one we know of in London) and poularde de Bresse Demi Deuil are the star dishes in a menu that reads like poetry to any serious foodie, though ‘foodie’ is a word it is unlikely they would use at Otto’s.
